Transport / Transportation / Shipping
English term or phrase: collection manifest
"I have been unable to find the hard copy of [the] collection manifest." (Note by a shipping company after handing over a parcel to a forwarding agent for further transport).

Could the term 'collection manifest' specifically mean or encompass the 'FCR' (Forwarder's Certificate of Receipt')?
Any hints welcome (also reg. term search in the field of transportation).

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thanks for the hint, but Inkassoauftrag doesn't seem to fit here. The term rather denotes a document handed over by the forwarder in exchange for the consignment - just found an example of a coll. manifest form here: http://www.pallitz.com/manifest.htm. So the question is: Does the term 'collection manifest' (roughly) coincide with the official term 'FCR' (Forwarder's Certificate of Receipt') or these entirely different documents?
